1. Advertise your bosses job in the local newspaper - (Great if you want to get fired !).

4. Scrape the cream out of oreo cookies and fill them with white toothpaste!.

15. If you have a digital camera, take a picture of the toilet, then plug in your digital camera into a PC or TV (using TV-out) and get the picture on screen.

29. My sister came home from school with Band-aids on her face and told my mom she got in a fight and got a note from the principle! My dad actually believed it and was like, "Did you really get in a fight, did you really punch her?" It was hilarious and it worked really well.

30. Fill a glass with water. Add food dye so it matches the color of whatever juice you have in your refrigerator. Serve the "juice" to your family. They will be expecting something sweet and getting water so it will taste funny at first. Don't forget to watch the funny faces they make!

32. This one could get the person you're pranking a little messy so make sure they're not wearing their best clothes and make sure they have a good sense of humor. Ok this one is simple - get two cans of soda out of the refrigerator, shake one up and hand that one to your friend. You take the non-shooken up one and drink some so it doesn't seem suspicious. When your friend opens their's it will splatter all over them if you shake it up enough!

33. Stuff toilet paper or tissues or whatever into the toe part of someone's shoes so they have trouble getting their feet in!

34. Put a spool of thread in your pocket and leave the tail hanging out. Then go up to your friend and say, I've been pulling this and pulling this but it won't come out! Then your friend will try to pull it. It will go on and on and on and on and her hands will be full!

35. When you've stopped at traffic lights, glance over at the driver next to you and do a double-take. Then, with a panicked expression on your face, lock all the doors.

36. Even though this joke is one of those haha jokes, it still works. Open a bedroom door or any door that you know a lot of people will walk through and put a pillow at the top of it so when the person opens the door the pillow will hit them on the head.

37. Turn all the clocks and watches forward one hour. Your 'rents will get up an hour earlier to get ready for work as you snooze for that extra hour.

38. Ring your friend and pretend to be from the local GPs office. Tell them they might have Newcastles Disease ( a chicken disease - don't tell them that ).

40. Superglue a pen cap to the pen and ask people if they can get it off for you!

Do you know any great April Fool's pranks & practical jokes? Had any played on you or got anybody really good?.Please add comments

My family does this EVERY YEAR and somebody ALWAYS falls for it. You can only pull this prank if ur sink has a spray faucet that works when u push the button. Tie a rubber band around the button of the sprayer and when someone pulls the handle to get water out of the tap (normal faucet) they will get sprayed in the face cause the button was already being pushed on the faucet

If you have one of those things on the side of your sink put clear tape or a rubber band around it and make sure it points tword where a person will be standing. then in the moringin your victim (or anyone else who goes to trun on the sink) will get a spray in teh face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Melt some chocolate in the microwave, once melted, put it on a plate in the shape of (dog) poop and pop it in the fridge for a little bit, check on it to make sure it is still the shape you want it, when it is completely dry, you can do whatever you want with it, options are endless, have fun! :D

make a realistic letter from the principle regarding your sibling (preferable in high school) saying they were caught smoking or drinking in the bathroom. make sure to tell them the joke before it gets too out of hand.

You print out a bunch of pictures of cats and after your parents fall asleep, quietly sneak in their room and tape them on lamps and all over the walls. Go to sleep and wake up early. Sneak in their room and hide behind a curtain or something. When you hear their alarm clock go off peek out of your hiding spot and watch your parents wake up to a bunch of cats!!!

What you do is take one of your friends sodas (or a beer... this works great with drunk people) then poke a hole almost to the top of the can with a thumbtack or a pin or something. Then, everytime they drink it, theyll get soda on them and they wont know why. =]

this is probably the best prank u guys will ever hear!! ok so three of my friends slept over my house once. in the morning my friend (her name is Mary) had to go to dance class for two hours then she was going to come back afterwards. so my two other friends and i made up the best prank!!! my sister is a hairdresser, from school, she got some mannequin heads to practice haircuts on. so we took the three heads and hid them around a room in my house. we put one in the closet inside a jacket so it looked like there was a disembodied person hanging in the closet. next we put one in a laundry basket under a comforter with a bouquet of dead flowers from my sisters wedding, we made it look like one of my friends was hiding under it by putting his shoe under the comforter so that it was sticking out. then the last one we tied to a string and hung it from the top of the inside of a suitcase, then we got a rag and put ketchup all over it, then we tied the rag on the bottom of the neck with a string, the put a knife through it, then at the bottom, we wrote (in ketchup) "beware of bloody mary) then we all hid in different places around the room. when she arrived back at my house, my mom answered the door and told her that we were hiding and she had to find us. when she got to the laundry basket she said "dan i see you" then pulled off the comforter and screamed in surprise it was too funny and my mom got the whole scene on video!!! so this is a great prank to pull on a friend named mary!!!

This one is good if you are at the beach and your friend or someone is laying on a towel. When said friend gets up quickly dig a hole underneath their towel. After you dig the hole put the towel back where it was before (covering the hole). When they come back, they will lay on their towel and fall in! Just make sure not to dig the hole too deep or said friend could really injure themselves. Priceless! :)

A bunch of friends were out on ATVs and a guy's dad was the kind that worried about thier kid a lot, so we got him into a position where he looked like he was knocked out in his jeep and covered his face with ketchup. We told his dad he was in a crash he came back saw him and panicked until he realized it was a joke.

this is a good one (it works best on parents who r always worrying about you) eat a whole bunch of rasberries or just squeeze out their juice and spread it all over your hands and face then go to one of your parents and tell them that you accidentally cut your self they will freak out =)

I made up this prank today and it totally worked! Does your dad or any on in your house drink beer? well take an empty bottle, fill it up half way with water and a little bit of ice tea or any other drink to make it look like its regular color. put the top back on the bottle and pound it lightly with a hammer or icecream scoop to secure it. when he or she opens the bottle there gonna have a disgusted look on there face! April Fools!!!

This is the best prank ever, i did it to my grandama. You get up early in the morning before your victim is awake (or late at night after your victim is already asleep) and you take salt (or any other gross spice) and mix it with water to make salt water. You then pour all of the salt water on your victims toothbrush and then pour more salt (or any other spice) on top. The next part is optional but it adds a good 'nother laugh or 2. You pour a bunch of salt (or another spice) inside their toothpaste so when they go to brush their teeth the toothbrush and toothpaste will be salty.

put loads of cling film around the victim's door frame of there room (use sellotape fot that extra strong stik)and turn all the lights out... then go get loads of pans and bang them together reapeatedly or make as much noise as you can and watch them come running out of there room scared and straight into the cling film. try and video it so u can watch the look on there faces over and over again

i just got my G1 lisence and at night whlie my mom and dad were watching a movie, I went over to our neighbors and gave Mr. humphrey the van and car keys and he parked them a few houses over, and then in the morning Dad got so mad b.c. he thought that I had driven them :P

prank call a restaurant, *make sure it delivers* and order a whole bunch of food. then tell them you want it delivered and then they will ask you for an address choose a neighbors house that you can see easily from a window and give the restaurant their address. make sure to look out your window untill they arrive. it will be a funny scene to watch

Put Karo syrup on the toilet seat. It dries clear so your victim won't see it coming. When they sit down they still won't know...but when they try to get up it feels like they've been glued to the seat (without the painful side effects)!

Before April Fools Day let your victim know you have a bunch of pranks in store constantly. Then get a piece of paper, fold it up, and write APRIL FOOLS PRANKS on one side. Then leave the paper where they will see it on April Fools Day. They'll open it up and on the inside will be written APRIL FOOLS!

I'd put in something meaner of course, but most kids are a lot more innocent then me.

Once i was eating Salt & Vinegar Pringles and I offered one to my friend. She asked what kind it was and I told her "Original". The look on her face was literally priceless! (: (You could do this to anyone, as they won't be expecting such a strong flavor, or especially someone who doesn't like Salt & Vinegar Pringles!) ;)

these are wiked can't wait for april fools this year hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

put icing in your victim's toothpaste but just on the top.... but put enough on so that they notice. just go up to them and tell them (if it's way after morning) and say "your breathe stinks, you should go brush your teeth" and they will get up and do it and be surprised by the taste of their toothpaste.

A couple years ago, my family had a really spicy dinner and hotwings to boot. My sister isn't the type that will just eat hot food without a drink to go with it, so she poured herself a glass of water. When she wasn't looking, i filled that same glass with clear mint extract and when she went to take a sip... well let's just say nobody wore the same clothes to the table as they started with that night. :)

Get some masking tape and get up early (before your victum gets up ) and tape thier door way from the outside ( make sure the door swings in NOT out ) sit back and watch lolololololololololololololololo

On April Fools Day I put cream cheese icing on top of my dad's toothpaste. I went up to him and said "dad your breath stinks." and he got up and brushed his teeth. It was hilarious! Just make sure you put enough on it. That was my problem

this one never fails. go into the kitchen and mix tofether any hot sauces you can find (the hotter the better). soak the victims toothbrush in the extremely hot concoction and then rinse it off to make it unnoticable

One of the best pranks I ever did was on my math teacher. He is generally good natured (therefore good to prank) and really, really loathes coldplay. A couple of friends and I got together and planted four ipod/docking stations around the room and set the alarms to ipods. The first one was set at a very, very low volume (but near his desk so he could hear it but nobody else). The alarm was a playlist of well-known coldplay songs and eventually went on to play several tracks that had no actual audio so it would be quiet for the rest of the class. We did this with the other three, but the volumes were set for later times and got progressively louder. The final one was normal volume. It was great because at first you could tell he heard it but everyone else pretended they couldn't and this continued until the final one.

This joke is mild but you can pull it any day of the year, what you do is get some fake blood (I use red cherry juice =D) and what you do is put the fake blood on one of your thumbs and go up to the person you are pranking and tell them you need help with your cut it is so funny to watch them try to help you when you just then suck the "blood" off and they look at you in discust XD

hello my names anonymous i love the idea of using cranberry juice for fake blood and sucking it off. i did it and my friend was actually almost gagging when i sucked off all of the "blood"! thanks for the laugh!!! xx

i made chocolate chip cookies only they werent ordinary. i replaced the sugar with half the amount in salt. when i passed out cookies at lunch all my friends were spitting.(its best to make the cookies a little bit on the small side because they wont take more than a nibble.

On top of making the "salt" cookies, you should make a very small batch of regular cookies. Once you give a regular cookie to someone, go back and give them a "salt" cookie. They'll take a bigger bite!

ok this is like the best joke ever!!!! i did it on this guy in my class his name is blake it was hilarious. Ok so at recess blake is always shooting hoops and he has this hat he is always wearing. soo while he wasn't looking i took his hat and put baby powder on it and he thought it was lice. So for the whole day he wouldn't touch his hate and jay (his best friend) finally told him he totally killed me but it was soo funny we still laught at him

Scrape the cream out of OREO cookies and fill them with white toothpaste, when your victim is about to reach for an OREO ask them '' have you brushed your teeth yet?'' if they reply no have a little giggle to your self if they say yes take a moment to realise how stupid you are for not doing it before they brushed their teeth. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

cause trouble outside 1 of your teachers doors then run off so they come chasing after you without locking their office or classroom door. Get a freind to run in and put superglue on their chair then 2 minutes later run back up but make sure you get caught so when they take you in the office or classroom and sit down there stuck and you can just walk off and close the door or you could say miss/sir having a bit of trouble getting up there ? i will go get some help and don't come back

Take your mattres off your bed and put it in front of somebodys door when the persons in the room(make sure the door swings in not out) and when they walk out they will have a mattresin there face it workes best in the morning when they are still half a sleep and watch it is very funny
